AUBURN HILLS, MI- As voting in Detroit and cities across the country starts for Election Day, Chrysler Group LLC is hosting a vote of its own.

The Auburn Hills-based automaker today announced the finalists for the “SRT Viper Color Contest” and opened voting for fans to choose their favorite. The three finalists -- chosen by the SRT design staff -- are Blue Racer, Competition Blue and Viral Blue.

The color contest launched in October, giving Viper fans an opportunity to submit names for the new blue exterior color for the 2014 SRT Viper. More than 11,000 names for the new color were submitted, according to Chrysler.

The winning name will be announced Nov. 12.

In addition to having their name become part of Viper history, the fan who submits the winning name will win a trip to the 2014 Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona at Daytona International Speedway and the opportunity to spend time with the SRT Viper Design team throughout the race weekend.

“The ‘SRT Viper Color Contest’ is a great opportunity for SRT brand enthusiasts to be creative, original and become part of Viper history, and what better place to see history in the making than the annual SEMA show,” said Ralph Gilles, President and Chief Executive Officer – (SRT) Street and Racing Technology Brand and Motorsports, in a statement.

The 2014 SRT Viper starts at about $100,000. The iconic two-seat, Detroit-built supercar features an all-aluminum, SRT-engineered 8.4-liter V10 engine estimated that delivers 640 horsepower and 600 lb.-ft. of torque – the most torque of any naturally aspirated engine in the world.
